How can AI be used in education without killing  thinking?

In this episode, we explore how teachers can use AI education tools responsibly — without replacing productive struggle or meaningful learning. You’ll learn how AI can support lesson planning, reflection, and feedback while keeping student thinking at the center.

You’ll hear about:

  • Why AI itself isn’t the problem — design is
  • How AI literacy helps teachers use tools responsibly
  • Practical ways AI can support teacher planning
  • What responsible AI use actually looks like in math classrooms
